Israel has just carried out a precision strike on the Hamas delegation in Doha.
Several reports in Israeli media are saying the attack was coordinated – in advance – with the US, and Donald Trump gave ‘the green light’ personally.
Yet, Benjamin Netanyahu’s office has released a statement, stressing that the it was ‘wholly independent Israeli operation.’
He said: ‘Israel initiated it, conducted it, and Israel takes full responsibility.’
Footage circulating on social media shows the bombed building where the negotiations over the US president’s proposal for a ceasefire in Gaza are understood to be ongoing.
Smoke is still rising above the city, which has hosted negotiations between Hamas and Israel to release hostages in Gaza and bring an end to Israel’s massacre on Palestinians.
The US embassy in the Qatari capital has put out an order for any of its citizens to take shelter.
A statement said: ‘We have seen reports of missile strikes occurring in Doha.
‘US citizens are advised to shelter-in-place and monitor [our] social media for updates.’
